docs: def set_default_timeout(timeout=None, connect_timeout=None, read_timeout=None):
      """
      The purpose of this function is to install default socket timeouts and
      retry policy for requests calls. Any requests issued through the requests
      wrappers defined in this module will have these automatically set, unless
      explicitly overriden.
  
      The default timeouts and retries set through this option apply to the
      entire process. For that reason, it is recommended that this function is
      only called once during startup, and from the main thread, before any
      other threads are spawned.
  
      :param timeout timeout for socket connections and reads in seconds. This is
                     a convenience argument that applies the same default to both
                     connection and read timeouts.
      :param connect_timeout timeout for socket connections in seconds.
      :param read_timeout timeout for socket reads in seconds.
